Children's Guidelines
We care about children and understand that
they have special privacy needs. Therefore, we have adopted the
following privacy policy regarding children:
-
We will not knowingly collectpersonally identifiable information from anyone 13
years or younger.
-
We will NOT give the child access to unmonitored
chat rooms, message boards, email accounts, or other services that would give
the child the ability to publicly post or otherwise distribute personally
identifiable information without prior verifiable parental consent.
-
When verifiable parental consent is not obtained,
we will only use the online contact information (such as email) to:
-
Respond directly to the child's request on a
one-time basis and not use that information to re-contact the child for other
purposes.
-
Request the name or online contact information of a
parent for the purpose of obtaining verifiable parental consent or providing
parental notification.
-
Respond more than once directly to a specific
request from a child and not used to re-contact the child for other purposes. We will
use our best efforts to provide parental notification, which will include the
nature and intended use as well as an opportunity for the parent to prevent the
use of the information and participation in the activity.
-
We will NOT entice the child to divulge more
information than is needed to participate in any activity, game, or service.
-
We will provide the parent a description of the
specific types of a personally identifiable information collected from their
child upon request. We will allow the parent to refuse further use or future
online collection of personally identifiable information and provide a way for a
parent to obtain any personally identifiable information collected from their
child.
-
We will provide notice to children in age
appropriate terms of what personally identifiable information is to be
collected.
-
We will NOT knowingly provide any links to Web sites that are
unsuitable for children.
-
We will encourage children to get their parent's
permission before sharing personal information online.
Notification of
Changes
If we decide to change our
privacy policy, we will post those changes to this privacy statement, the
homepage, and other places we deem appropriate so our users are always aware of
what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if
any, we disclose it. We will use information in accordance with the privacy
policy under which the information was collected.
If, however, we are going to
use users’ personally identifiable information in a manner different from that
stated at the time of collection we will notify users via email. Users will have
a choice as to whether or not we use their information in this different
manner. However, if users have opted out of all communication with the site, or
deleted/deactivated their account, then they will not be contacted, nor will
their personal information be used in this new manner. In addition, if we make
any material changes in our privacy practices that do not affect user
information already stored in our database, we will post a prominent notice on
our Web site notifying users of the change. In some cases where we post a notice
we will also email users, who have opted to receive communications from us,
notifying them of the changes in our privacy practices.
Correcting/Updating/Deleting/Deactivating Personal Information
If a
user’s personally identifiable information changes or if a user no longer
desires our service, we provide a way to correct, update or delete/deactivate
users’ personally identifiable information. This can usually be done by emailing
